Terminology

Hi all,

I have question about BOM and O-Model.
Do you refer to BOM as "BPEL object model", and to executable intermediate
format as "O-Model"?

If so, how can I extend the O-Model name? Isn't the O standing for "Object"

And would it end up in
1) BOM == "BPEL object model"
2) O-Model == "object model"

Am I correct?

PS
Maybe I can refer O-Model as "process model"?

Thanks in advance,
Madars

Hi Matthieu,

I was thinking for what does this [O]-Model stands for.
And now I see that in full form it is Object-Model.

Thanks,
Madars

Correct. The BOM is actually closer to an AST (Abstract Syntax Tree) used
only for BPEL parsing, it's only needed by the ODE compiler.

What do you mean by extend it?

Yes, those acronyms are actually not very descriptive if you don't know what
they are beforehand.
